This book analyses contemporary gay "pig" masculinities, which have emerged alongside antiretroviral therapies, online porn, and new sexualised patterns of recreational drug use, examining how they trouble modern European understandings of the male body, their ethics, and their political underpinnings.

Autorenporträt
João Florêncio is a Senior Lecturer in History of Modern and Contemporary Art and Visual Culture at the University of Exeter. His interdisciplinary research navigates the intersections of visual culture with queer theory, performance studies, and the medical and post-humanities in order to think the production and visual mediations of modern and contemporary bodies, subjectivities and sex cultures.
Rezensionen
"In his study of the abject use to which bodies are joyously put by gay male sex pigs, João Florêncio extends the future-oriented strand of queer theory in new directions and toward "unknown islands" of "unforeseen pleasures," by suggesting that such horizons of queer masculine self-invention and solidarity might be located no place other than right there in the trough."

John Paul Ricco, author of The Logic of the Lure; and The Decision Between Us (both University of Chicago Press), and Professor of Queer Theory, Art History, and Comparative Literature at the University of Toronto.
